Adele vows to refund fans fleeced by ticket touts

Adele has vowed to refund any fans who spent thousands buying tickets from touts for her sell-out tour.

The 27-year-old singer caused pandemonium when tickets for her Adele Live 2016 tour went on sale earlier this year (16). While some lucky fans got their hands on tickets to see the lady herself in action, touts also snapped some up – with reports of pairs of tickets being sold for a staggering £25,000 ($35,625).

As she performed at London’s O2 Arena on Wednesday night (16Mar16), Adele told the audience she was disgusted by touts taking advantage of her fans’ devotion.

So much so that Adele promised to refund anybody who dropped the incredible amount on tickets for her show.

“You’ve got all those terrible people selling tickets for £25,000 a pair,” she said. “I hope no one paid that much. If you did I’ll pay you back.” Read
